Oh I wish, because I love bad movies. Bad sci-fi especially. This one is not so-bad-its-good. It's just bad. The script is bad. The plot is bad. Even the action scenes are bad. The costumes and production design are okay, if you've never seen Logan's Run.
There are three pages of expositional text before the opening credits. Then there is another ten minutes of voice-over narration with more exposition -- the kind that only gets added after the studio has recut the film so many times that adding voiceover narration at the beginning is the only way they can remember what movie they're recutting.
It's baaaaaaaaaaad.
I think it looks good. But I also found the Charlie's Angels movies to be enormously entertaining. So I don't know whether or not I'll actually see it.
But I did watch 13 Going on 30 last night. That was even worse than I expected.

So did I. That's the kind of bad movie I can get behind.
I don't think anyone involved with Aeon Flux was having even a shred of fun making it. Several scenes towards the end of the film involve characters impassionedly telling other characters "This has to end!" And DH and I looked at each other as if to say "She's saying what we're all thinking!"
Me too. I was fucking stunned too...JG completely sold that, to me, and Ruffalo is cute, despite the "Property of Matt tBF" sticker on his back. But that's okay, because by being a good bunky and respecting that I get Secor.
We'll go somewhere and...meditate. Yeah. That's the ticket.
I liked it too, the same way that erika did. JG went all out, and I think she hit all the right notes. I found it very charming.
She was just so precious I wanted one. Just so "Whee! Isn't life great?"
Of course, in comparison, I felt about 500 years old... but insofar as that movie had a point, that was it.

Um, no claim staked on Ruffalo here. I think he's a pretty good actor, but not one I'm particularly fond of.
Wrong actor.
Thinking of somebody else.
Guess that gossip column would have to stay in the world without shrimp, huh?
It's okay; I could only make the famous cry in that non-gentle, non-Baba Wawa way anyway.
This weekend, I am watching movies (I went through my Netflix queue and searched the listings on my TiVo (only the unedited stations). I saw
Vertigo
last night. A Hitchcock biopic would be an interesting project. Hard to do, though.
Just finished
Roman Holiday
, which I enjoyed, although I felt awfully bad for them at the end, which is slightly surprising to me, and speaks well of the acting. I'm starting to really get the Audrey Hepburn thing (I have issues with
My Fair Lady
, which was the first think I saw her in).
Am now watching
Sweet Charity
. Not sure how we're going to get along.
